When Haley was a baby she did not have a single tooth in her head until she was 14 months old. I kid you not!!! This however did not deter her from eathing anything and everything she could get her little hands on. (hmmm.... who else does that sound like) This however means that at 6 years of age she still has not lost a tooth. Most of her little friends started loosing their teeth last year sometime and Haley has been waiting (not that patiently) for her teeth to start feeling loose. Well this week she said that FINALLY her front teeth are loose. We felt for ourselves and well..... yep, I guess they are kind of loose (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) so with us being stuck inside with a false case of appendicitis I decided to make her this to cheer her up.
Isn't it so cute! She named her toothy (original I know) because she's a tooth mom. Duh... why didn't I think of that! But you put your little tooth (probably in a little piece of plasic wrap or something so it doesn't fall out the holes) in the pocket in the back. Then the tooth fairy comes and leaves you a dollar or so I've been told. Isn't it so cute!!!! We are so totally ready once those bad boys fall out! I told Dylan that I would make him one that looked like a boy with a bandana or something when his teeth were ready to fall out. So whatcha think? Is she cute or what!

how impressed am i with you sewing talent. Then again, i recall all the sewing that you did for the house of nine, so we could have the cutest room/house on the block. Don't worry-tell her the teeth will come out, Kinli is the same way. She is almost 8 and has lost 3 teeth! Dentist said not to stress-but she probably will need braces! great-guess i'll have to slow down on the shopping, ok-just kidding, you know me well enough that is not ever going to happen! Love the pillow-your kids are lucky to have a mom like you!
Your tooth pillow turned out so cute...I think it is so cute that Haley is all ready for the tooth fairy...I am so impressed with your crochet skills! Now...you need to start making patterns and selling them!

Hey you love "toothy" it is really great. She might be like her cousin Chris, he didn't start losing teeth until 8 years old and then he started losing them FAST!!!! They were coming out by the hand fulls, I kid you not! We lost 4 teeth in one day the tooth fairy went broke that night... Love you, Tam
